ANSTO has contributed to a recent publication in Nature Communications Biology that represents a landmark achievement in structural biology, an understanding of protein regulation mechanisms in Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb), a global health threat.

International researchers have used nuclear techniques at ANSTO - a centre for food materials science - to develop a methodology that could assist in the design of oleogel systems for food applications.

Researchers from the University of New South Wales have developed a new type of rechargeable battery that uses protons as charge carriers, offering a safer and more environmentally friendly alternative to conventional lithium-ion batteries.

Hudson Institute of Medical Research and Monash University researchers used synchrotron X-rays produce powerful visualisation of video of changes to blood flow to brain during ventilation in large preterm clinical models.

A research team from ETH Zurich developing and characterizing silicon carbide devices for power electronics, recently spent time at ANSTO’s Centre for Accelerator Science to use a specialised beamline in their investigations.

Dr Luiz Bortolan Neto, a structural materials engineer at ANSTO has received an Industry Partnership award for his significant contribution to defence science at the DMTC annual conference in Canberra, last week.

ANSTO was proud to support the first science-themed AuslanX event for the greater Sydney Deaf community during National Science Week.

ANSTO welcomes the recent announcement that the inaugural CEO for the Australian Radioactive Waste Agency (ARWA) has been appointed, following a global search. Mr Sam Usher will lead ARWA and comes to the role with almost three decades of experience in the nuclear industry. 

ANSTO will participate in a New Zealand Marsden project which will search for chemical clues linked to the origins of life on Titan, Saturn’s largest moon. 

ANSTO is temporarily housing 12 tonnes of an important chemical for the SABRE Dark Matter Detector as part of the Dark Matter project.

Australia is supporting a new regional initiative led by Fiji in partnership with the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) under the Regional Cooperative Agreement for Research, Development and Training Related to Nuclear Science and Technology for Asia and the Pacific (RCA) to strengthen food security across Asia and the Pacific using nuclear science and technology.

An international team led by scientists at City University of Hong Kong has found flexible metal-organic framework (MOF) with one-dimensional channels that acts as a “molecular trapdoor” to selectively adsorb gases, such as carbon dioxide, in response to temperature and pressure changes.
